One of the most talked about acts on the drum ’n’ bass scene, and arguably one of New Zealand’s finest live acts right now, The Upbeats (and special MC guest to be announced soon) also join the bill. Renowned for their ‘anything goes’ explosive and energetic shows and their unique take on 170bpm+ bass music, this is tipped to be one of the ‘must see’ sets at the Bay Dreams 2018 festival.

The Bay Dreams pre-party will also return in 2018. Although serving as a warm-up teaser to the main event, the pre-party has become an integral part of the Bay Dreams festival and next year it promises to be bigger and better, with promoters set to reveal more in the coming weeks.
